This is a year old bump, but is there a way that the chat can be removed from the home page? I want it in forumdisplay which it is showing but for some reason it is not showing on threads.

The not showing on thread is not important but would be nice if I can have a solution, but it's more of removing it on the home page.

Thanks

Yes it is, it uses the "promotion" system. Simply elevate a "Registered User" to a "Member" when they get 10 posts.

usergroups>promotions>Add new promotion
Mine are set to:
type: primary
strategy: posts
reutation level: 1000
Days Registered: 3000
Posts: 5

After this runs (or you can run it manually in Scheduled Tasks) and all your existing members get promoted, then go to the chatbox options and set the unpromoted (and etc.) Registered users so they can view but not post.

Like I said, it's a bit of work but with today's spammers this simple promotion becomes very useful for a lot of things besides the chatbox. e.g. Keeping spammers from posting in our Classifieds.

I try to never respond when I don't know the answer, but if this is really a long bump I'll have a go...

Have you tried experimenting with the "Show Chatbox in templates" option (and "Show Chatbox on pages")? Open up a list of templates in one window and chatbox options in one and your forum in a third and start changing this setting until you find one that works the way you want. Then come back and let us know!

The background is white in the chat box how do I change the color background in the chat box?

Is there a way to set alternating row bg colors?

Good day! And you can do that when you click on the user name, it automatically added into the response? Now when you click on the user name is redirected to a profile.

A good idea for a Feature Request. Currently it's even hard to copy a name because if you miss you get spirited away to the profile.

Clicking on a name adds "@thatname: " to the reply box.

Okay so the background isnt changing when we do it in style var > editor bg.
Plus we seem to be getting 2 showing on the forum? only one works mind...

Hello, how can I change the default text color?
